UPDATE!
Ok, so I got the car fully assembled, rust holes in the floor and rear wheel well cut & painted, everything is hooked up, I just need to figure out where these 3 ramdom clips go, fill oil, coolant, gas, and
pray pray pray that it starts up!
Right now I need to figure out where these 3 wires go to, then hook up the battery and check that the wiring harness doesnt catch fire.
After that, if the car runs, all I will need to do is order brakes, paint my calipers, get an exhaust welded up, and weld in the holes I cut out in the floor during rust repair.
Man, this thing has been a lot of work, and a lot of money, but I'm happy it's almost drivable.
Here's some pics:
When I first got the engine in:
Tired messing around with the exhaust, but I think I'm just going to have the shop weld one for me, the one my friend and I tried making wasn't that great.
Just took these tonight with a camera stand:
The interior currently (not done with it yet):
Custom REAL billiard shift knob: ( I got the idea from the 8 ball shifter, but thought that was too common, so I would drill and tap the 7 ball instead:
I had what I thought was a "bit" of rust in the primered area, and it turned out to be a TON! I cut it all out of course, follwed by a wire wheel and a grinder:
